Let us all reason, for the well being of humanity.

There are 5000 languages on earth. You can't establish 5000 countries.

All those Turks you quoting were once denialists, at least in their youth age.

Were they? If they were than it would have be interesting for them to have documented their change. And probably more useful, as well. Akcam's "13 steps from denialisim to acceptance" might be an interesting book.
But most of them only write because there is Armenian money to be made from it. Orhan Pamuk, at least, is not guilty of that.

All descended from an archaic Turkish, if we are to believe Turkish linguists.

I am sorry to say this (since I thought that your raising of the subject of the fake "genocide" in Kosovo was a legitimate point) but, after reading your later posts, I do think that you are now listening with deaf ears.

And it is you who have made yourself deaf.

Why do you accept the lies of the Turkish State, (even if they are lies done for your benefit)? Why do Turks want to live in such a "nanny state" that their delicate ears must be protected from hearing the truth about events that happened over 90 years ago? This is not a healthy condition for a nation to be in. It is YOUR history that the Turkish State is re-writing - it is YOU that it is lying to (Armenians know the truth - and the rest don't actually care much). And it is YOU, though these lies, that is being made to look (in the eyes of the world) as guilty of the Genocide as those who actually did the killing all those years ago. You should be very VERY angry at all of that! The issue for you should not simply be the fact of the Armenian Genocide, but the fact that the Turkish State has denied it for 90 years. The denial is what is affecting you, and not the actual Genocide. Remember - "A people which is cut off from its own past is far less free to choose and to act as a people than one which has been able to situate itself in history. This is why the past has now become a political issue" - John Berger, "Ways of Seeing".

I see you didn't even read any archives of Ottoman Empire. Actually why don't you show me the truth all the way?

You think like this: Turks didn't like us so they decided to kill us all (oh not all of us only Armenians in Anatolia)?

or like this: We don't know what happened before 1915 we only know that our grandparents died there without any reason (There must be something behind it )

maybe like this: We were christians so you forgot centuries that we lived together and decided to kill us all (again i must say you didn't kill all of us)

and of course like this: There were evil bastard named Talat he sent us to desert to die (Why didn't you kill us all the way and then bury? It is a lot easier and you didn't have to record that...)

You believe me or not, it is not my concern at the moment. I admire you I would like to be your student, if possible.

As far as I know, Sumerian/Turkish connection etc. was not a theory of Turks but Hungarians. Again, as far as I know, the first Turkology studies and all those started in Hungary ang Central-Asian origin of languages also related to that.

An interesting reading for you here . I would like to have your comments.

I am not in a position to believe or not to believe.

There is another website out there that quotes from a book that does say that Turkish is the "mother-language" of every language in the world! At first I thought this website was it - but it isn't. As to the Runic website - like you I'm not in a position to decide. But since everything to do with the study of "Turkish" is political, I'm suspicious.

All Turkic languages are Turkish
All Turkic speakers are speaking Turkish
All Turkic speakers are Turks
All Turks speak Turkish
All Turks must speak Turkish
All Turkish speakers are Turks
Turkey speaks for all Turks

Imagine if this imperialist ideology was to be transferred to the English language!

I love the Armenians way How magically switching the topic
